Rowland writing for ODOGWU MEDIA...The former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, has publicly vowed to
stop the re-election of the incumbent governor, Willie Obiano, with the
last drop of his blood.

While speaking during a stakeholders’ meeting of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) held in Awka, the Anambra State capital, a former governor
of Anambra State, Peter Obi, on Wednesday, said he would fight with the
last drop of his blood to stop the re-election of Governor Willie Obiano
in the November 18 poll in the state.

According to Punch newspaper, the influential politician said he was
disappointed at the profligacy and clueless administration of his
successor, Obiano, and regretted that all he laboured to put in place in
the state in his eight years in office were being destroyed by bad
governance.

Obi said, “I will fight in this election aggressively. I will fight with
the last drop of my blood. I will fight to win this election the way
the PDP has not won any election before.

He asked the stakeholders to mobilise for the victory of the PDP’s
candidate in the poll, Oseloka Obaze, describing Obaze as “a first-class
market.”

The former governor pledged to reconcile all aggrieved PDP members in the August 28 primary election of the party.

“I’m the beneficiary of the PDP confusion when I was governor on the
platform of APGA. Today, I’m 100 per cent in the PDP. That confusion
must end. We must win the November 18 poll; nothing can stop us from
doing that. It’s a fight I must win for the PDP.

“I’ll be in Anambra State all through from today (Wednesday), to
accomplish this goal. In 2002/2003, I contested against an incumbent
governor and defeated him; so there is nothing strange to me in
defeating an incumbent governor.

“If all the money I kept for this (Obiano’s) government, both in dollar
and naira were properly utilised and our legacies sustained, Anambra
will be on top of other states in development by now.
